Calculate your annual Zakat on gold, silver, cash, savings and property — with automatic Nisab threshold check based on current rates in Pakistan.
Include everything you have owned for at least one lunar year
Zakat is one of the five pillars of Islam — an obligatory annual payment of 2.5% of total qualifying wealth that has been held for one full lunar (Hijri) year. It applies to gold, silver, cash, bank balances, investments, and business inventory — but only if your total wealth exceeds the Nisab threshold.
The Nisab is calculated using either the gold standard (87.48 grams of gold) or the silver standard (612.36 grams of silver). Because silver's value is much lower than gold, the silver-based Nisab is significantly lower — meaning more people qualify to pay Zakat. Most contemporary scholars in Pakistan recommend using the silver standard, as it increases the amount of charity reaching the poor.
Important for Pakistan: Gold and silver rates fluctuate daily. Update the rates in this calculator using current Pakistani market rates — search "gold rate Pakistan today" on Google for the latest tola/gram price. This calculator uses gram-based pricing; if you know the price per tola (11.66 grams), divide by 11.66 to get the per-gram rate. Zakat should ideally be paid during Ramadan, though it can be calculated and paid any time your Zakat anniversary (Hijri date) falls due.
